Message of the Day - NCI Flicker Web Server

• Dec 28, 1998 Fixed memory leak when doing sequential transforms. Added Median and Threshold (gray value in range of [threshold1:threshold2]) transforms.

• Dec 23, 1998 Added gang-image scrolling and display gray value toggle modes in the FILE menu. Increased the efficiency of many of the transforms.

• Nov 12, 1998 Added clickableGUIbaseURL PARAM was specified for an image when Flicker was started, then a new checkbox "Click to access DB" is included. If you set that checkbox and then click on a spot in the image, it will access related data from the associated database specifed by the URL. See examples B)

• [11-12-98] The "Mult popup wind(ow)s" menu selection in the FILE menu toggles between creating multiple windows for every popup or placing all popup data into the same popup window. LI> Nov 9, 1998 Added three selectable color modes: Normal color (default), pseudo color, and RGB to gray color. These are selected from the FILE menu and are activated when using the brightness/contrast adjustment with the SHIFT/mouse motion.

• Nov 6, 1998 A number of bugs have been fixed. This includes:
  1. The NCI image proxy server connection is now more robust;
  2. The SHIFT key used with the mouse will change the contrast and brightness of the image. This is useful for interactively setting the contrast for one image to that of the other before flickering. Note this is still somewhat buggy.
  3. You can display the (x,y,gray) values of a pixel of an image as you drag the mouse. The image must have been processed (eg. having done an Average transform) instead of just the (x,y) values.
  4. You can move both images together if you press the SHIFT and CONTROL key prior to clicking the mouse in one of the images.
